Hi Dave,

Thank you for your time.
The problem is caused by signed integer overflow, which leads to attempt 
to read from unallocated memory.

I have downloaded psqlodbc 16 and debug symbols from 
https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/odbc/versions/.
Source code from for psqlodbc 16 from 
https://git.postgresql.org/git/psqlodbc.git.
I compiled the attached program with msvc 14 and msvc 16 compilers (same 
results). Program should be compiled with defined "UNICODE" to use 
functions (SQLGetDiagRecW etc.) that accept wchar.

On windows 10 attached program crashes inside ER_ReturnError line 
environ.c:249. Where it tries to memcpy from the buffer "msg" with 
offset "stapos".


"msg" is a valid pointer to "pgerror->__error_msg". "pgerror" also have 
field "pgerror->errorsize" with value "32690".
Offset "stapos" is calculated as "stapos = (RecNumber - 1) * 
error->recsize;"
Here "error" is "pgerror", "recsize" = 99, "RecNumber" = 332.
"stapos" should be assigned the value of 32769  but it has type SWORD 
(short int) (INT16_MAX is 32767).
Expression"if (stapos > msglen)" (here "msglen" = 32690) evaluates to 
"false", because of signed integer overflow.  It should've been "true" 
instead, and function would've returned SQL_NO_DATA_FOUND.
Callstack:
      vcruntime140.dll!memcpy() line 438
      psqlodbc35w.dll!ER_ReturnError(PG_ErrorInfo * pgerror, short 
RecNumber, unsigned char * szSqlState, long * pfNativeError, unsigned 
char * szErrorMsg, short cbErrorMsgMax, short * pcbErrorMsg, unsigned 
short) line 250
      psqlodbc35w.dll!PGAPI_StmtError(void * hstmt, short RecNumber, 
unsigned char * szSqlState, long * pfNativeError, unsigned char * 
szErrorMsg, short cbErrorMsgMax, short * pcbErrorMsg, unsigned short) 
line 1626
      psqlodbc35w.dll!PGAPI_GetDiagRec(short) line 57
      psqlodbc35w.dll!SQLGetDiagRecW(short fHandleType, void * handle, 
short iRecord, wchar_t * szSqlState, long * pfNativeError, wchar_t * 
szErrorMsg, short cbErrorMsgMax, short * pcbErrorMsg) line 234
      odbc32.dll!SQLGetDiagRecW()
      odbc.pg.exe!CollectDiagRecords(short hndlType, void * hndl) line 30
      odbc.pg.exe!main(int argc, char * * argv) line 117

That means, that the problem is caused by signed integer overflow, which 
in turn causes memcpy to read from unallocated memory.
The easiest way to reproduce this problem is to try increasing the 
number of "raise notice" messages in for loop. If their number gets past 
certain point, no diagnostic records from SQLGetDiagRec are being 
returned at all. Then I've decreased the number of these messages until 
they started appearing again. In my case at this number I am able to 
reproduce the problem. With further decrease of this number problem 
doesn't appear anymore.

I can't fix this problem myself, because I'm not familiar with the 
project, and I don't know how to properly test psqlodbc on different 
platforms.

Regards,
Andrey
